NBA great Kobe Bryant will call time on his career tomorrow when he will play his 1,281st and final game as the Lakers take on the Utah Jazz in the final fixture of their regular season.

He will complete 20 seasons with the Lakers, the most seasons by a player with one NBA team, having reached the playoffs in 15 of those 20 seasons.

Here are the great, and not so great statistics from his 20-season career with the Lakers.

Bryant didn't have the best of starts to the NBA going 0-1 in his debut for the Lakers in 1996 against the Minnesota Timberwolves. 18 at the time, Kobe had six minutes of play and recorded one rebound and one block in the 91-85 victory.

He would score his first point two days later in a game against the Knicks. Bryant started just six games in his rookie season.

That's the number of NBA titles for Bryant in seven NBA finals appearances. His first title came in 2000, a 4-2 series win over the Pacers, and was the start of a three-peat for Los Angeles with finals wins over the 76ers and Nets. Bryant would appear in three straight finals once again from 2008-2010 where he picked his his last two rings.

Bryant scored 81 points in the Lakers' 122-104 win over the Toronto Raptors in 2006 at the Staples Centre - the second most in an NBA game behind Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game in 1962. Kobe completed 28-46 from the field, 7-13 from behind the arc and 18-20 from the free-throw line. He also completed two assists. He scored 60+ on five different occasions. Michael Jordan reached the mark four times.

Not one to pass the ball up, Bryant sits 29th all-time on the assists list, more than 600 behind LeBron James.

The points scored by Kobe during his career. It puts him third on the all-time scoring list behind Karl Malone (36,928) and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (38,387). He has also made the third most attempts (26,101).

According to Forbes, Bryant will finish his career with US$680m in career earnings. The only athletes to earn more are in individual sports and include Tiger Woods, Michael Schumacher and Floyd Mayweather.
